Luxurious Tropical Hideaway

This tropical backyard poolscape from Distinguished Pools, Inc., has a lagoon-like pool surrounded by lush vegetation. The space also boasts an authentic Balinese Lumbung cabana with Merbau wood frame as well as an inviting stone-like waterslide with swim-in cave and waterfall.

A Tropical Backyard Poolscape With Luxurious Features

The Balinese feel of this luxurious backyard is provided by the construction of a lagoon-like swimming pool surrounded by an array of tropical plants. A tan stone patio creates a neutral frame for the tropical elements to shine.

A traditional Balinese Lumbung is well-lit against a backdrop of tropical plants as it seems to float over the lagoon-like swimming pool. The design of the hut was specified by the clients who wanted to imbue a strong tropical vibe into their backyard poolscape.

A Balinese Lumbung Pool Shelter

An authentic Balinese Lumbung was created to provide an authentic feel to this tropical backyard poolscape, and a place to enjoy the view from. The simple design includes a thatched roof with arched wood supports in aheart shaped enclosure that points up towards the sky.

Outdoor Pillows Create the Prefect Outdoor Lounge Area

Striped and solid pillows create a harmonious design and add comfort to the tropical outdoor cabana. The deep red tone of the main cushion was used to compliment the reds of the Merbau wood frame, and the striped pillows with offset colors ties into the natural shades of the rocks, creating a perfect harmony of inviting colors.

An Inviting Tropical Stone Waterslide

The concrete boulders were constructed to take on a natural tropical feel in order to create this Balinese inspired pool. The massive waterslide is an exciting feature that connects to a swim-in cave and waterfall, and incorporates built-in speakers so visitors can listen to their favorite music.

A Backyard Tropical Pool Waterfall

Rough-hewn brown concrete boulders have been constructed together to create a magnificent spa waterfall. The feature was built to mask the unsightly pool equipment and service area, but adds a vibrant and engaging element to this tropical backyard.
